That was quick nicely done, The rocks work a treat for some foreground interest.

David de Groot said: Thanks :) Not too bad really. Yeah, quick and the dead around here ;-)

I like the foreground interest you have added too Dave

David de Groot said: Thanks Kath. Yeah shot a couple without the light painting but decided it needed the extra boost.

The ferry works well in leading towards the city. Very nice.

David de Groot said: That was the plan :)

great city shot and the rock being lit adds interest

Cool cityscape David.. Love the reflections.
Do you have a formula for your light painting exposure or just give it a bit of light for a few seconds, because that foreground is perfectly lit.

Excellent!! From where I was standing, I didnt have anything in front of me, but the grasses.. I like the rock interest in the foreground.. wish I'd thought of that!!

David de Groot said: Thanks - the river is a big part of Brisbane and as such always worth featuring :) Not quite the same amount of interest I wanted but it'll do. I blasted it with about 5 or 6 full pops of a 580exII. You get a feel for how much an exposure needs after a few goes. Thanks :) I think the grasses would have made for a more interesting foreground actually, but the trick is to get them not moving. Thanks - 2min exposure does a lot to calm the river ;-) Thanks !
